Alright, gonna ask this here because my search-fu skills are finding nothing.

Why do you need a VPS to run a mail server? What is the reasoning? And why for a web server? I can promise 100% uptime with the equipment I have and I have gigabit static IP service. So why should I pay someone else for a VPS?

@herag because your ISP IP is considered eViL by mail blacklists (aka protection racket) and your ISP probably blocks port 25.

so.. no reason aside people making your life harder than it has to be 💃

web server should be fine though!

@bonifartius @herag More specificlly your home ip address is almost certainly listed in the PBL spamlist https://www.spamhaus.org/pbl/
